Après les grandes tragédies et les pires cataclysmes, la vie finit toujours par reprendre ses droits. Quelques semaines à peine après des incendies qui ont tout ravagé en Australie, des bourgeons et des feuilles sortaient déjà des troncs calcinés. Après le Covid-19, la vie normale refera surface encore une fois.
After the great tragedies and the worst cataclysms, life always ends up resuming its rights. Just a few weeks after the fires that ravaged everything in Australia, buds and leaves were already emerging from the charred trunks. After Covid-19, normal life will once again surface.

Poor quality I'm afraid due to being taken in a hurry (the light only lasted a few seconds) probably resulting in UCM which I'm good at ..... but it catches a moment.

Charing Cross train station in London was opened in 1864 and was designed by Sir John Hawkshaw with 6 terminus platforms and a large single span trussed arched train shed roof which was 164ft wide and 510ft long. It quickly became a busy station for both commuter and continental departures, having a direct link into London Bridge station and onwards to Folkestone and Dover.
Along with the station, Sir John Hawkshaw also designed the Hungerford Bridge which carried the railway over the River Thames and into Charing Cross. In 1845 Isambard Kingdom Brunel had built a suspension bridge over the Thames at the same spot, which now had to be demolished for the new railway bridge to be built. Two piers from Brunel’s bridge were used in the new railway bridge and the suspension chains reused in the Clifton Bridge at Bristol. Contemporary with Charing Cross the Clifton Suspension Bridge was being built as a memorial to Brunel with Sir John Hawkshaw and William Henry Barlow as consultant engineers.
walking through the burned gorse I noticed a small fire damage pine tree the cones clinging on, seedpod opened by the heat

I wanted to drive back on saturation a little bit in this pic, because the green of the spring lawn was so intense that it distorted the image. I ended up reducing green and yellow to the max and immediately liked what I got. The subject gaining the attention I wanted.
Tell me what you think. I would be pleased if you drop a comment...
Taken with Canon EOS 400D (thank you David :-) using f22 / 25sec. and ISO 100. The tripod was sponsored by Paul (thank you Paul :-)
Another shot from the London Eye.
Facing north this time with Charing Cross Station in the foreground and the BT Tower towards the back.
I changed the perspective for this shot and managed to encompass the northern alpine forest on shore, the spawning substrate and the school of Char. I got lucky, but a lot of thought went into creating this shot. For a detailed account on how these photos were taken, see the first posting I did in this set.
